This is exactly why we give Adobe so much crap about Flash. Seriously, three hundred and sixteen flaws found in one year? Yikes.

For the year, Flash averaged 6.1 bug fixes per week. Think of it as a bug fix every day, but taking Sundays off to rest. There was a flood of fixes at the end of the year. From mid-October on, Adobe fixed 113 bugs, roughly 1.5 per day. The final tally for 2015 is 316 Flash Player bugs. This, for software that is over 18 years old.
